Python interface for Hantek bench power supply

Hantek Power Supply Controller

This is an interface to the serial port on Hantek HDP1160V4S power supply. It should work with other HDP10000-series power supplies. buy

❗ATTENTION❗

USING THIS CODE MAY DAMAGE YOUR POWER SUPPLY OR CONNECTED DEVICES. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.

To communicate with the PSU I am using USB-to-RS232 adapter - does not require any drivers on debian linux.

Usage

p = PSU(port='/dev/ttyUSB0', baudrate=2400)

Methods

Method	Description	Return Type
turn_on()	Turns on the power supply unit.	None
turn_off()	Turns off the power supply unit.	None
ocp_on()	Enables Over Current Protection (OCP).	None
ocp_off()	Disables Over Current Protection (OCP).	None
ovp_on()	Enables Over Voltage Protection (OVP).	None
ovp_off()	Disables Over Voltage Protection (OVP).	None
get_model()	Gets the model of the PSU.	str
get_active_voltage()	Gets the active output voltage of the PSU in volts.	float
get_active_current()	Gets the active output current of the PSU in milliamps.	int
get_voltage_limit()	Gets the voltage limit setting of the PSU in volts.	float
get_current_limit()	Gets the current limit setting of the PSU in milliamps.	int
get_on_off_status()	Returns the on/off status of the PSU.	bool
set_output_voltage(v: float)	Sets the output voltage of the PSU in volts.	None
set_output_current(mA: int)	Sets the output current of the PSU in milliamps.	None
set_ovp_limit(v: float)	Sets the Over Voltage Protection (OVP) limit in volts.	None
set_ocp_limit(mA: int)	Sets the Over Current Protection (OCP) limit in milliamps.	None

Examples

Set voltage to 12V and turn on the power supply:

>>> from psu import PSU
>>> p = PSU()
>>> p.set_output_voltage(12.0)
>>> p.turn_on()

Development

Requirements

• python 3.10+
• poetry

Ensure the device is connected. If using usb-to-rs232 adapter, run lsusb:

$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 012: ID 0403:6001 Future Technology Devices International, Ltd FT232 Serial (UART) IC

You should also see something similar to /dev/ttyUSB0 in the /dev folder.

To figure out which device it is, you can run ls /dev before plugging in the adapter and after and compare the differences.

Installation

git clone https://github.com/builder555/hantek-controller
cd hantek-controller
poetry config virtualenvs.in-project true --local
poetry install

Unit Tests

When adding new features or modifying existing ones, make sure you add unit tests and run them:

$ poetry run pytest -v

You can also run pytest-watch while developing to run tests automatically on save:

pipenv run ptw --runner 'pytest -v'
